Care Of The Feet

Badly fitting footwear is often the cause of discomfort, and has been known to lead to permanent injury. Indeed, it is surprising the risks that many will take rather than spend a little more time and money to gain comfort and safety.

In dealing with football boots it is necessary to keep the uppers fairly soft At the end of a game the boots should be well-oiled; and they should be stuffed with newspaper, which is better than using shoe trees. If a boot is allowed to become wrinkled on the outside, it must be wrinkled on the Inside, and this causes chafed

A

GRAND GAME

Says "PAK LO”

This afternoon the Fijians will again be seen in action in what is

to them, and to their opponents, the all-important game of the series they are playing while in Hongkong.

Today's game is the FARELF Inter-Unit Knockout Competition Final. Last season, it will be remembered, the Fiflans lost to the Welch Regt. In the final by 11 points to nil.

This year it is the turn of the 72nd LAA to face this terrific learn, and they will find it their hardest match to date.

Whether they will be able to repeat the success of the Welch Is a moot point, but they will ot the worst give the Fijians a very hard fight for the Chaun- pionship.

The game this afternoon will be played on the Club ground in Happy Valley, with the kick-off scheduled for 4.00 p.m.
